(Published in 1831.) Marriage is Ordained of God wherefore it is lawful tliat he shonld have one wife (Published in 1831.) Senatoa Biiitow €ontrasts the twQ Churehes as follows: Judge Phillipe in the cireuit eourt in the Unifred States for the Western distriet of Mis6otiri Temple Lot Case said: Beyond all evil, if human testimonji is to placet any matter at rest, this church was one in doctrine, government, and purpose from 1830 to June, 1844, when Joseph Smith, its founder was killed. It hau the same federal head, governing bodies acd faith. Ihiring this period there was no sehism, no dissensions or affecting its oneness. The death of Joseph Smitli in 3844, however T carried disn»av and demirali* zation throughout the entire membership of the church scattering the adherents in divers directions. Eecovering, howe\-er, from the shock, the scattering bands soon reappeared in the various parts of country, promulgated their doctrines' and reorganized their scattered forees in what is now known and recognized as the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saint with headquarters at Lamoni, lowa, and presided over by Joseph Smith a son of the Prophet. The court have repeatedly declared this organization to be the legitimate successor of the original Mormon, and its adherents, numbering some 50,000 peaceable patrio tie and law abiding citizens scattering throughout the United States in small{ societies, conforming to the laws ofj tbeir country wherever they may be and adhering to the faith of the founder of their creed, repudiating and denouncing the doctrine of and its attending crinies. And in speaking of the Uta Church, tbe Brigham Young branch, Senator f Burrows said: An organization that fosters and encourages crime, tramples upon law, human and divine practiceit polygamy, and polygamous cohabitation, desecrates the home, debases man, degrades womanhood, debauches public morals, strikes at the Christian civilization of the age, undermines and shjjkes the foundation of society and govemment and brings the name and farae of the good people of Utah into disrepute, and shame and humiliation to the American people.
